| 02:30.10 | GeneralAntilles | Hi |
| 02:30.30 | GeneralAntilles | If you do write a new script, please submit your improvements to maemo-developers. |
| 02:30.44 | kamui__ | I will certainly make it public |
| 02:30.50 | kamui__ | but its likely to be an after the fact script |
| 02:30.59 | kamui__ | eg, optify packagename |
| 02:31.09 | kamui__ | maybe even with a gui frontend if I get around to caring |
| 02:31.20 | kamui__ | but I'm tired of constantly being on the verge of a reflash :) |
| 02:31.34 | crashanddie | kamui__: that already exists |
| 02:31.40 | kamui__ | packagescan? |
| 02:31.44 | crashanddie | aye |
| 02:31.49 | kamui__ | naah, that takes at least 10 minutes to become useable |
| 02:32.05 | kamui__ | I want something where I can run it from the cmd line, as I KNOW I just installed an app and its eating x megs of root |
| 02:32.20 | crashanddie | GeneralAntilles: it's not for nothing that Brainstorm has the same initials as bullshit |
| 02:32.52 | kamui__ | btw, who are the garage admins |
| 02:32.58 | GeneralAntilles | crashanddie, I guess the idea was going to be that we were actually going to be getting a time investment from Maemo Devices managers. |
| 02:33.03 | GeneralAntilles | kamui__, X-Fade's in charge. |
| 02:33.09 | kamui__ | I wanted to say thank you for approving my blender project |
| 02:33.19 | kamui__ | Im publishing my current build tonight |
| 02:33.22 | crashanddie | blender on the N900? |
| 02:33.29 | kamui__ | a ton of email requests keep pouring in |
| 02:33.31 | GeneralAntilles | crashanddie, unfortunately the tool seems to be the worst parts of Bugzilla and the lists all rolled up into one awful package |
| 02:33.32 | kamui__ | even though its still a bit slow |
| 02:33.35 | GeneralAntilles | with no management investment. |
| 02:33.36 | LB1938 | ftw! |
| 02:33.44 | crashanddie | GeneralAntilles: who could blame management |
| 02:33.45 | kamui__ | crashanddie, yep, my first day with the N900 I ported b lender 2.5 alpha |
| 02:33.52 | crashanddie | GeneralAntilles: they don't have time to deal with whining cunts |
| 02:33.58 | crashanddie | if you'll pardon the language |
| 02:33.59 | GeneralAntilles | crashanddie, I constantly blame management. :D |
| 02:34.03 | GeneralAntilles | Just not for this. |
| 02:34.05 | kamui__ | but the opengl dep makes it a little slow, currently working on a gl to gles wrapper |
| 02:34.15 | LB1938 | but is it even useable? |
| 02:34.29 | LB1938 | oh ok. |
| 02:34.32 | kamui__ | interface latency is about 1 - 2 seconds |
| 02:34.35 | kamui__ | so yes and no |
| 02:34.49 | crashanddie | yes it's a proof of concept, no it's not usable for any real work |
| 02:34.53 | kamui__ | yes, it can be played with, no I wouldn't try and use it on a even a moderately serious recreational project |
| 02:35.11 | crashanddie | kamui__: you the dutch guy who presented blender at the summit? |

| 02:53.11 | crashanddie | SpeedEvil: I doubt it... TCP keepalive can't be high enough to warrant battery savings |

| 03:01.10 | kamui__ | N900 only supports 1 exchange account anyway afaik |
| 03:01.19 | kamui__ | Matthew-, imap defeats the purpose of exchange |
| 03:01.25 | kamui__ | plus the imap implementation on the N900 is very poor |

| 03:30.27 | villager | rohanpm: no, it definitely used clone before they invented nptl... just wondering what they use after, I thought it would be new syscalls, not good old clone, though I haven't checked that |

| 07:17.39 | crashanddie | Commercial isn't necessarily bad, and if any open source zealot is going to start being difficult about it, you can be sure as hell that I'm going to storm in pretty hard |
| 07:17.40 | mece | well he doesn't need garage. just the account. |
| 07:18.13 | mece | also, since the app has built in payment thingamagig, he could just put it in ovi store free |

| 07:18.42 | crashanddie | timeless_mbp: the size of the company is irrelevant: it just takes one bad experience to kill Maemo's reputation -- especially if he's the first one |
| 07:18.54 | timeless_mbp | ponders |
| 07:18.58 | MiXu- | Because if it doesn't, Maemo will remain as the platform for nerds, and at some point it'll mean the end of it. |
| 07:19.03 | timeless_mbp | you're not currently reading mozilla.org's thread about bugzilla |

| 07:23.18 | crashanddie | However, it's not the first time I heard about it |
| 07:23.47 | timeless_mbp | sorry, which we/issue? |
| 07:23.52 | timeless_mbp | is we = crashanddie + MiXu- ? |
| 07:23.56 | crashanddie | no |
| 07:24.02 | crashanddie | we = maemo community + bugzilla |
| 07:24.05 | timeless_mbp | ok, just checking :) |
| 07:24.13 | timeless_mbp | it's not quite the same issue, but it's pretty close |
| 07:24.27 | crashanddie | Ubuntu had exactly the effect, same thing for backtrack as well, and thinking of it, quite a lot of projects |
| 07:24.29 | timeless_mbp | note that mozilla.org has ~5 ways to send 'feedback' |
| 07:24.32 | crashanddie | I'll have to run some numbers tonight |
| 07:24.57 | timeless_mbp | bugzilla, hendrix, forums, newsgroups, mozillazine, support, 'ask a friend to do it' |
| 07:25.07 | crashanddie | I mean, as popularity rises the signal-to-noise ratio always degrades, and this is true for nearly everything on the planet |
| 07:25.08 | timeless_mbp | actually we also have reddit/digg/slashdot |
| 07:25.37 | timeless_mbp | and yes, we definitely have engineers who read those expecting to convert some whines into bug reports |
| 07:25.44 | timeless_mbp | bz and jesse certainly do for /. |
| 07:26.23 | mece | are we talking about the bugzilla is not a forum issue now? |
| 07:26.24 | timeless_mbp | but the thread in mozilla.org comes w/ people who assume that infinite growth should still justify a guaranteed response to any bug filing |
| 07:26.32 | timeless_mbp | mece: not precisely |
| 07:26.53 | crashanddie | mece: the "isn't a forum" issue is part of it, as far as I can tell |

| 07:35.25 | ruskie | and yeah even though I'm a Free Software zealot I see nothing wrong with commercial Free Software |
| 07:35.28 | timeless_mbp | partially because maemo.org is an open source community |
| 07:35.36 | crashanddie | my point is: it's not like you just go to maemo.org and click on "Upload my app" and click submit |
| 07:35.41 | timeless_mbp | and partially because it's a nokia derived community |
| 07:35.56 | timeless_mbp | nokia is terrible about message/fast pathing |
| 07:36.56 | crashanddie | I'm still pretty sure that nearly 99% of this community would answer "because it's more secure, everyone can look at the source code" at a poll asking: "Why is Open Source important to you" |

| 10:01.45 | tybollt | frankly I've had it up to here w/ idiot companies making desktop stands w/out rubber feet so they slip n slide, fuck damnit that is so god damn irritating |
| 10:01.51 | tybollt | is very angry now :S |
| 10:01.57 | tybollt | jaem: thks |
| 10:02.00 | jaem | tybollt, this is just an individual with a laser cutter doing them |
| 10:02.08 | jaem | and they have non-slip coating on the wooden ones |
| 10:02.13 | jaem | ...not on the acrylic |
| 10:03.11 | MiXu- | The stand on N900 is crap |
| 10:03.15 | jaem | and the person who's making them took plenty of suggestions from forum users in the prototyping stage, so they should be good |
| 10:03.20 | MiXu- | It's unstable if you have the keyboard out |
| 10:03.26 | jaem | MiXu-, yeah, I was pretty disappointed, coming from the N810 |
| 10:03.44 | jaem | ...which, by the way, also conveniently allowed me to hold it in one hand |
| 10:04.14 | jaem | you can do the same thing with the N900's if your fingers are slim enough, but I'm always worried I'll snap it off, even if it saves me from dropping the phone |
| 10:04.21 | MiXu- | Hmm. Now that you mention it, N900's stand can be used that way as well |
| 10:04.26 | MiXu- | At least with my fingers |
| 10:04.35 | pupnik | i heard from bfree that a company is making an extended battery with custom back cover for n900 (!) |

| 10:24.40 | slonopotamus | timeless_mbp, sshfs and store it in one place? :) |
| 10:24.55 | timeless_mbp | slonopotamus: grumble |
| 10:25.04 | timeless_mbp | most of my code exists in at least 3 places |
| 10:25.18 | timeless_mbp | in this case i was looking for a _code_pattern_ |
| 10:25.38 | w00t | shoves everything into git repositories and pushes it back to one server |
| 10:25.48 | slonopotamus | there should be only two - working copy and repo where you push it to. |
| 10:25.57 | timeless_mbp | which meant "which language did i use this in [oh duh]", "which projects was using this language [oh duh]", "where did i use this [oh right!]" |
| 10:25.59 | dnaumov | yay, reflashing seems to have fixed my issue with the rootfs suddenly going readonly |
| 10:26.50 | timeless_mbp | slonopotamus: i have 3: my mac because it's here, my vm, because i need it to build, remote because getting my vm to talk to my mac is painful and it enables me to do work from my n900 which doesn't always get along w/ my n900 either |
| 10:27.11 | timeless_mbp | for mozilla, it's similar |
| 10:27.28 | timeless_mbp | m-c + c-c's m-c, + remote's m-c (for pushing) |
| 10:27.39 | timeless_mbp | so i typically have 3 nearly identical repos |
| 10:27.59 | timeless_mbp | but an incomplete change is typically only going to be in one of those places |
| 10:28.22 | timeless_mbp | for mxr, i have mxr-test, mxr for pushing, mxr.maemo |

| 10:35.47 | timeless_mbp | i have a set of 216 changes that i want to make |
| 10:36.08 | timeless_mbp | on a tree which has hrm, say 10,000 files (probably way off, but whatever) |
| 10:36.29 | timeless_mbp | how should i figure out which files to change? |

| 10:37.07 | timeless_mbp | how would that help? |
| 10:37.26 | timeless_mbp | it's still 216 distinct commits no matter which dvcs i choose |
| 10:37.38 | timeless_mbp | and that's because i *want* 216 distinct commits |
| 10:37.39 | tybollt | why d? |
| 10:37.45 | w00t | pfft, after the first crawl, it'll all be in cache anyway *g* |
| 10:37.47 | tybollt | everyone is so needy about the "d" part? |
| 10:37.49 | jaem | that reminds me... I read a sci-fi novel years ago in which they had a network of teleport gates that not only did virus-scan and rejuvenation, but also ran git on your body/consciousness |
| 10:37.58 | jaem | not "git" by name, but essentially that |
| 10:38.03 | hrw | timeless_mbp: you have those changes done and want to split them to 216 changes? |
| 10:38.06 | timeless_mbp | tybollt: well, because it came as a dvcs from symbian |
| 10:38.16 | timeless_mbp | hrw: no, i have calculated what the changes are |
| 10:38.27 | jaem | you could just check out a copy of yourself, use it to take care of stuff you didn't care to do, and then merge it back in to master (you) and not miss a thing |
| 10:38.29 | jaem | :) |
| 10:39.06 | timeless_mbp | hrw: this is one commit: |
| 10:39.07 | timeless_mbp | asynchronous: s/\basyncronous\b/asynchronous/ s/\bAsyncronous\b/Asynchronous/ |
| 10:39.07 | timeless_mbp | s/\bASYNCRONOUS\b/ASYNCHRONOUS/ |
| 10:39.07 | hrw | tybollt: distributed vcs allows me to work instead of waiting 5 minutes for each "svn diff" when repository is on other side of world on slow connection |

| 10:40.13 | timeless_mbp | hrw: i'm fixing spelling mistakes in a repository |
| 10:40.22 | timeless_mbp | for each 'word' that's misspelled, i'm constructing one commit |
| 10:40.33 | timeless_mbp | but the word isn't misspelled in one known file in the repository |
| 10:40.42 | hrw | timeless_mbp: git init; git add .; git commit -m"initial" |
| 10:40.46 | timeless_mbp | it's misspelled in n not particularly known places |
| 10:40.57 | timeless_mbp | eyes hrw |
| 10:41.01 | hrw | timeless_mbp: then run sed; git commit -m"sed: this->THIS" |
| 10:41.09 | hrw | timeless_mbp: repeat until end |
| 10:41.11 | slonopotamus | timeless_mbp, so, what's the problem of using sed on whole tree? |
| 10:41.19 | timeless_mbp | slonopotamus: 216 times? |
| 10:41.43 | timeless_mbp | and the fact that sed doesn't have a --recursive flag in 'man sed' |
| 10:41.53 | hrw | timeless_mbp: sed -e "s/this/THIS/g" `grep this -l -r *` |
| 10:42.06 | slonopotamus | find/grep + sed. |
| 10:42.13 | hrw | grep will find all files, give filenames and sed with alter |
| 10:42.16 | slonopotamus | find, i guess. |
| 10:42.29 | timeless_mbp | hrw: oh, there are dozens of ways for me to do this |
| 10:42.39 | timeless_mbp | e.g. i have a box where there's an index for this, so i could use it |
| 10:42.41 | slonopotamus | timeless, write small perl/bash script that'll run sed and then perform commit :) |
| 10:42.52 | timeless_mbp | slonopotamus: already doing that .... |
| 10:42.53 | slonopotamus | timeless_mbp, in a loop, i mean :) |
| 10:43.08 | timeless_mbp | you don't honestly expect me to do the 216 commits by hand, do you? |

| 11:22.43 | jacekowski | MiXu-: over usb |
| 11:22.54 | MiXu- | jacekowski: Yes. You need usbnetworking for that. |
| 11:22.56 | jacekowski | scp is too slow |
| 11:23.02 | jacekowski | MiXu-: on windows xp? |

| 13:18.11 | jacekowski | i'm just wondering how complicated it would be to create iphone api emulator for n900 |
| 13:18.49 | Jaffa | jacekowski: There's some threads on tmo about it |
| 13:19.00 | *** part/#maemo sjaensch (~sj@urbanite.de) |
| 13:19.07 | Jaffa | jacekowski: "Probably too hard" is the best answer |

| 13:19.44 | lcuk | Jaffa, a few years ago, people asked the same thing about windows compatibility layer |
| 13:20.04 | lcuk | it would be amusing to run iphone apps within maemo |
| 13:20.20 | tybollt | as someone said... |
| 13:20.48 | tybollt | 99.9999% of iphone apps are basically remakes of webpages that their retardo-browser can't handle |
| 13:20.49 | jacekowski | well, it's same CPU |
| 13:20.58 | jacekowski | both kernels are posix compatible |
| 13:20.59 | tybollt | those pages works in n900 |
| 13:21.03 | tybollt | so no need really |
| 13:21.19 | jacekowski | it's just translating syscalls and emulating iphone display features using X |
| 13:21.23 | jaem | tybollt, that is true |
| 13:21.29 | tybollt | jacekowski: dude what are you smoking? Windows is fricken posix compatible :) |

| 13:21.38 | jaem | tybollt, ...either that or stupid things that are amusing for about 5s |
| 13:21.40 | Jaffa | lcuk: By "a few", read "over ten" and it's still not complete and has taken hundreds of man years of effort. |
| 13:21.55 | jaem | tybollt, for some values of "compatible", with addons |
| 13:22.02 | lcuk | jaffa, the mighty oak is grown from a single seed |
| 13:22.04 | jaem | disclaimer: I haven't actually used said addons |
| 13:22.11 | jaem | lcuk, not if I *BURN* the seed |
| 13:22.12 | MiXu- | My favorite iPhone app is the one that has a video of a flame in it. And nothing else. |
| 13:22.16 | Jaffa | lcuk: I didn't say it wasn't *technically* possible |
| 13:22.22 | jaem | lcuk, what are you talking about, by the way? |
| 13:22.25 | lcuk | indeed |
| 13:22.25 | jaem | looks confused |
| 13:22.26 | jaem | lol |
| 13:22.39 | jaem | MiXu-, isn't that on TV at Christmas, too? :P |
| 13:22.52 | MiXu- | Oh, the "beer pint simulator" also rocks my world. |
| 13:23.21 | Jaffa | jacekowski: How complete is the iPhone OS documentation on API; packaging; execution? How available is it without being a paid iPhone developer? |
| 13:23.22 | jaem | I thought about trying to code grayscale emulation for my Logitech G15 keyboard so I could have Happy Flames to *cough* warm my hands over while coding in the winter |
| 13:23.23 | jaem | :P |
| 13:23.40 | mece | I've seen some pretty cool iphone apps. I mean apps that were actually useful. There was this ski resort mapping thing that was pretty sweet. very fast and smooth. |
| 13:24.00 | MiXu- | Sure there are good ones also :) |
| 13:24.16 | frals | lcuk: how was fosdem? :) |
| 13:25.20 | Jaffa | jacekowski: Not only do you have to have a complete set of APIs, you also have to have implementations of things like CoreGraphics and CoreAnimation which may not have a direct Maemo equivalent (though, I'd guess, Qt 4.6 may make it easier) |
| 13:26.38 | lcuk | frals, amazing actually, loads of n900s around and lots of buzz in most areas. some great talks and even greater people participating |
| 13:26.56 | lcuk | jaem, mmm greyscale emulation? |
| 13:26.56 | frals | lcuk: nice :) |
| 13:27.09 | lcuk | how are you after returning from helsinki |
| 13:27.10 | ie | question: does anyone know if the n900 can receive "blackberry broadcast messages" ? |
| 13:27.14 | jaem | lcuk, well, the keyboard only has a monochrome LCD |

| 13:27.35 | jaem | backlit with orange |
| 13:27.36 | lcuk | jaem, yeah but how do you program it? |
| 13:27.58 | jaem | but while I understand the principles behind grayscale emulation, I didn't have the coding skills at the time to do it with that hardware |
| 13:27.58 | jacekowski | Jaffa: it's not that complicated |
| 13:28.08 | jacekowski | Jaffa: it might be hard to make it efficient |
| 13:28.20 | frals | lcuk: great - got lots of stuff im working on :D |
| 13:28.25 | jacekowski | Jaffa: but in the end X proto isn't that different |
| 13:28.33 | jaem | lcuk, there's a library to do it - the problem is that something (not sure if it's hardware or software) latches the image when you "send" the buffer to the screen |
| 13:28.44 | frals | only downside its really busy in uni as well, so dont have time to code (on fmms) as much as i want |
| 13:29.04 | jaem | so cycling through sub-frames while still responding to requests to update the (actual) frame requires threading |
| 13:29.11 | jaem | which I'm actually just covering now in class |
| 13:31.07 | jacekowski | well, up untill not so long ago there was no real multithreading |
| 13:31.12 | jacekowski | it was just emulated |
| 13:31.38 | jaem | jacekowski, I mean threading in terms of code |

| 13:32.04 | jaem | since the utility of the code would have been somewhat limited anyway |
| 13:32.14 | jaem | I may do it some time, though, for practice |
| 13:34.06 | Jaffa | jacekowski: Sounds like you'll have it well in hand then. Even a proof-of-concept would be cool. |

| 13:42.29 | jaem | dottedmag, I believe MaemoMapper is in -devel or -testing, but I don't know if it would fall under your definition of "real", seeing as you haven't defined it |
| 13:43.47 | dottedmag | jaem: turn-by-turn voice guide, recalculating path if you miss the highway exit etc. |
| 13:44.16 | dottedmag | Just the features you get from off-the-shelf "hardware" GPS navigator. |
| 13:45.15 | jaem | oh |
| 13:45.50 | jaem | yes, it does all of that, but you need the "backseat driver" plugin, which costs a lot to maintain, and has to be fed |
| 13:45.51 | jaem | ;) |
| 13:46.02 | jaem | sorry, yeah, unfortunately nothing that good yet |
| 13:46.03 | jaem | :( |
| 13:46.26 | dottedmag | Ovi or MM are pretty ok if you just walk around in unknown city, but for driving through several countries with lot of highways it's just a bit awkward |
| 13:46.58 | dottedmag | And yeah, backseat driver is a good solution :) |
| 13:47.20 | jaem | most versions of it don't have a C API, unfortunately |
| 13:47.30 | jaem | and the ones that do tend to ask for higher salaries |
| 13:47.45 | dottedmag | OTOH some versions pay for gasoline :) |

| 13:51.07 | tybollt | dottedmag: MM? |
| 13:51.12 | dottedmag | tybollt: maemo mapper |
| 13:51.21 | MiXu- | Nokia's CEO promised N900 will have navigation |
| 13:51.31 | tybollt | he did? |

| 13:52.26 | X-Fade | MiXu-: Just no voiice navigation ;) |
| 13:52.29 | MiXu- | But wait. Actually the quote talks about maemo, not n900. |
| 13:52.35 | jaem | haha... someone was trolling on an unpublished article on the KDE Dot news site |
| 13:52.37 | X-Fade | Text nav works. |
| 13:52.47 | jaem | I had to mention it in #kde-www, and they weren't terribly impressed |
| 13:52.49 | jaem | XD |
| 13:53.45 | tybollt | MiXu-: "eventually" |
| 13:53.46 | tybollt | hah |
| 13:54.08 | tybollt | you have to understand what "eventually" means in the nordics to parse that proper |
| 13:54.17 | Jaffa | Anyone wanting to test providing library shims for cross-device compatibility could make a start on Diablo's libgpsbt to liblocation. Then we can run Wayfinder from an N810 :) |
| 13:54.47 | dottedmag | For the record: http://www.sygic.com/ - see the "maemo coming soon" |
| 13:54.49 | Jaffa | Which meets all the criteria above for a "real" GPS and, amazingly, looks like a fantastic app when compared wih Ovi Maps |

| 14:31.40 | jospoortvliet | jaem: the situation is simple: there is nothing official, no team really dedicated to this - but all of KDE software is build on Qt, runs on any linux, and there WILL be efforts starting today to get a good KDE plasma workspace on mobile devices. |

| 17:32.47 | GeneralAntilles | tripzero, minus Nokia requiring two fingers on screen for all operations. |
| 17:33.02 | tripzero | i doubt it will require two fingers on the screen |
| 17:33.26 | GeneralAntilles | tripzero, because capacitive sucks, it's basically a marketing ploy, and I hate that they're deciding to jettison most of their existing customer base by moving to it. |
| 17:33.29 | MohammadAG | well then it should work on the N900 |
| 17:33.29 | tripzero | multi-touch comes from multi-input in X doesn't it? |
| 17:33.39 | GeneralAntilles | tripzero, it comes from hardware. :) |
| 17:33.49 | tripzero | well, the TS tech has to support it |
| 17:33.56 | tripzero | but on a software level, it's all xinput |
| 17:33.57 | Stskeeps | stands by his 'SDK' argument that a UI developer has to be braindead to make a multitouch-only UI on a single-touch (mouse) SDK |
| 17:34.10 | GeneralAntilles | tripzero, I'm not sure I see your point. |
| 17:34.15 | GeneralAntilles | Stskeeps, this is Nokia. :) |
| 17:34.19 | hrw | Stskeeps: connect 2 mouses, configure and you have multitouch |
| 17:34.29 | Stskeeps | hrw: right, but still |
| 17:34.33 | GeneralAntilles | UI decisions are made 50% by marketing. |
| 17:34.40 | MohammadAG | lol hrw |
| 17:34.57 | cehteh | recent xorg supports multiple pointers |
| 17:34.58 | tripzero | the point is, multitouch is backwards compatible with single touch |
| 17:34.59 | MohammadAG | i doubt the human brain would coordinate it well hrw |
| 17:35.12 | Corsac | hmmh, not sure multitouch is really useful except in few corner cases (but then you might really find it useful, I guess). But what I guess i'd like with capacitive is that it only require contact and not pressure |
| 17:35.13 | hrw | GeneralAntilles: 40% by management and no place left for designer |

| 17:35.20 | Corsac | though I never really used a capacitive display |
| 17:35.30 | GeneralAntilles | tripzero, erm? Not if the software only provides multitouch interfaces to certain functions. |
| 17:35.32 | Lumpio- | It's almost like Minority Report! |
| 17:35.39 | MohammadAG | i like pressure on a screen |
| 17:35.42 | GeneralAntilles | Corsac, capacitive sucks. |
| 17:35.49 | greenfly | every time I see someone use the multitouch stretch gesture to zoom out an image, it just reminds me of goatse |
| 17:36.01 | MohammadAG | gliding your finger on the screen is impossible on capacitive |
| 17:36.02 | GeneralAntilles | Multitouch is mostly a gimmick |
| 17:36.05 | Corsac | GeneralAntilles: do you have something backing up your claim? :) |
| 17:36.27 | lcuk | actually GeneralAntilles there is at least one very very useful thing for multitouch |

| 17:37.39 | MohammadAG | i wonder if the next maemo device will have a keyboard |
| 17:37.41 | GeneralAntilles | Corsac, which is a big problem at ~260ppi |

| 17:37.50 | lcuk | its very nearly manageable - even using the multitouch fakey thing i did |
| 17:37.56 | lcuk | but its something to consider |
| 17:38.06 | Corsac | GeneralAntilles: because of the finger nail vs. finger tip? |
| 17:38.07 | frals | gah, almost brought the wrong n900 with me when going to the store |
| 17:38.19 | GeneralAntilles | Corsac, no, capacitive is just less precise. |
| 17:38.24 | Corsac | GeneralAntilles: or because of the tech? |
| 17:38.25 | frals | need to put some visual aid on which is the one im suppose to bring and which one isnt :< |
| 17:38.32 | GeneralAntilles | Corsac, the technology is incapable of reaching the sort of precision that resistive does. |
| 17:38.45 | tripzero | resistive is no better in terms of precision |
| 17:38.57 | GeneralAntilles | Input device does have an effect, but it's more a factor of the type of tech. |

| 17:39.52 | GeneralAntilles | See the capacitive "styluses" that they're manufacturing now. |
| 17:39.54 | lcuk | didnt seem too imprecise to me |
| 17:40.00 | lcuk | errr other day == december |
| 17:40.09 | GeneralAntilles | lcuk, try using an iPhone. |
| 17:40.10 | lcuk | GeneralAntilles, i was using my n900 stylus |
| 17:40.14 | tripzero | GeneralAntilles, nope, I mean precision: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precision |
| 17:40.21 | GeneralAntilles | tripzero, then you're incorrect. |
| 17:40.59 | GeneralAntilles | tripzero, the input device is not a factor in the relative precision of the technology. :) |
| 17:41.04 | Corsac | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Accuracy_and_precision.svg |
| 17:41.07 | tripzero | go press your finger on a resistive touchscreen adn then go press your finger on a capacitive touchscreen and tell me which is more precise |
| 17:41.17 | GeneralAntilles | tripzero, you're doing it wrong. |
| 17:41.24 | luke-jr | screw touchscreens; just give me a nub mouse |
| 17:41.26 | tripzero | i'm not going to use my finger nail |
| 17:41.29 | GeneralAntilles | can see he's not going to get anywhere with this discussion. |
| 17:41.30 | tripzero | it's retarded |
| 17:41.53 | GeneralAntilles | tripzero, that's a personal problem. |
| 17:41.56 | luke-jr | tripzero: use a stylus |
| 17:42.07 | tripzero | GeneralAntilles, so is not liking multitouch |
| 17:42.07 | GeneralAntilles | tripzero, and, again, the input device doesn't have anything to do with precision. |
| 17:42.20 | GeneralAntilles | tripzero, capacitive is simply not capable of being as precise as resistive. |

| 17:42.33 | Arkenoi | wants a really good keyboard. /me fucking HATES the idea "there is too little space for keyboard so let's do it real crap as nobody cares!" |
| 17:42.42 | luke-jr | Arkenoi++ |
| 17:42.47 | tripzero | um, a touchscreen is an input device |
| 17:42.58 | GeneralAntilles | Arkenoi, the idea is that they wanted to keep your fingers as close to the display as possible. |
| 17:43.10 | GeneralAntilles | tripzero, input implement. Finger/stylus/etc. |
| 17:43.11 | tripzero | luke-jr, i don't want to use a stylus in my car, which is the primary place i use the touchscreen |
| 17:43.16 | ifreq | d |
| 17:43.20 | lcuk | sharpen your fingers |
| 17:43.22 | GeneralAntilles | Arkenoi, a 4-row keyboard moves your fingers away from the touchscreen. |
| 17:43.24 | tripzero | haha |
| 17:43.38 | luke-jr | tripzero: wtf are you doing using 2 fingers on a touchscreen in a car?? |
| 17:43.43 | Arkenoi | GeneralAntilles, that was bad idea anyways |
| 17:43.50 | GeneralAntilles | Arkenoi, I disagree. |
| 17:43.50 | tripzero | luke-jr, i'm not using 2 fingers? |
| 17:43.56 | GeneralAntilles | Arkenoi, personally I find it quite helpful. |
| 17:44.01 | luke-jr | tripzero: that is the only benefit of capacitive |
| 17:44.17 | tripzero | well, not having to press so hard is a benefit as well |
| 17:44.26 | GeneralAntilles | tripzero, nah, that's a personal preference. |
| 17:44.28 | tripzero | that and flicking gestures are easier |
| 17:44.30 | lcuk | sits back o nthe capacitive fence, i just want something i can have my stylus with |
| 17:44.39 | GeneralAntilles | lcuk, then capacitive aint it. |
| 17:44.40 | ToiletOil | jesus, please not a resistive vs capacitive discussion |
| 17:44.40 | johnsu01 | So, the other day when I looked, I swear there was a package listed that said "Maemo 5" which was not installed. I did not install it after it told me that I should back everything up and reboot, but now it's not showing up anymore. |
| 17:44.40 | lcuk | if i can have it on capacitive fine, if not i dont rly car |
| 17:44.41 | luke-jr | press hard? what? |
| 17:44.46 | luke-jr | I've never had to press |
| 17:45.02 | lcuk | GeneralAntilles, i just said, that screen i posted was multitouch and could work with stylus |
| 17:45.07 | lcuk | my normal n900 stylus |
| 17:45.11 | GeneralAntilles | lcuk, you can have a stylus with capacitive, but it'll only ever be as precise as your finger tip. |
| 17:45.12 | lcuk | best of both |
| 17:45.14 | johnsu01 | I'm also curious about what the reasoning is for why dist-upgrade is disrecommended |
| 17:45.16 | tripzero | luke-jr, you never have to press your touchscreen? does it work on brain waves? |
| 17:45.17 | GeneralAntilles | lcuk, then it wasn't capacitive. :) |
| 17:45.19 | tripzero | ;_ |
| 17:45.20 | tripzero | :P |
| 17:45.23 | luke-jr | tripzero: I just touch it. |
| 17:45.23 | lcuk | GeneralAntilles, i cannot use my stylus on an iphone |
| 17:45.31 | GeneralAntilles | lcuk, it was either capacitive/resistive hybrid or Stantum. :) |
| 17:45.31 | lcuk | how else could it be multitouch |
| 17:45.46 | Arkenoi | general: operating touch screen with thumbs while holding the device with both hands is *not* good anyways, so the compromise is pointless |

| 17:46.19 | uhsf | the pointer pad, or whatever it is called, is the thing that i miss the most on the n900. it was a bad decision to remove it from previous n800 |
| 17:46.25 | tripzero | luke-jr, you have to press it harder than you would press a capacitive touchscreen. That's why it's called "resistive", it works by applying pressure to the layers in the ts |
| 17:46.29 | GeneralAntilles | Arkenoi, in fact, that's how I ALWAYS use the device. |

| 17:48.20 | Arkenoi | i ususally hold it with one hand and use index finger of another |
| 17:48.29 | uhsf | ok but these do not move a cursor |

| 17:48.40 | ToiletOil | it's one key short |
| 17:49.04 | MohammadAG | uhsf what cursor? |
| 17:49.23 | MohammadAG | the arrow keys don't move the cursor on a PC |
| 17:49.32 | anidel | what? |
| 17:49.51 | ToiletOil | can you move the in-browser cursor with arrow keys? |
| 17:49.55 | anidel | in my Editor that's what I use.. also on the N900.. |
| 17:50.01 | anidel | ahhh in-browser one.. |
| 17:50.07 | anidel | but to enter text ? |
| 17:50.16 | uhsf | MohammadAG: the cursor i make visible by changing /usr/share/icons/default/transp |

| 17:50.50 | ToiletOil | uhsf: if you made the cursor visible, you should also be capable of making it respond to arrowkey presses |
| 17:50.53 | MohammadAG | uhsf again, arrows don't move the cursor on a pc |

| 17:55.16 | luke-jr | lcuk: lack of learning curve != best |
| 17:55.38 | SpeedEvil | ack of learning curve != worst |
| 17:55.55 | lcuk | luke-jr, for the nokia device i disagree based on size, but for lazy devs having mouse and keys on surface to prevent gorrila arm is true |
| 17:56.08 | ToiletOil | I think that initially, a touch interface with large shiny buttons are the easiest to understand |
| 17:56.29 | lcuk | a touchscreen device where you have to move your whole arm to use would be harder for regular desktop ops |
| 17:56.42 | uhsf | ToiletOil: i you can imagin a gaming controller dpad behavior, but this size. it's very intuitive |
| 17:56.47 | lcuk | but for wall mounted things (like calendars and pinboards) its great |

| 17:57.14 | pupnik | luke-jr: high five |
| 17:58.34 | uhsf | pupnik: it doesn't work very well indeed. i'm still looking for a real configuration option to make cursor visible. sometimes it still disappears and a reboot is needed or browsing to a page with flash. i don't know more about this. |
| 17:59.20 | pupnik | i also had to browse to a page with flash! |
| 17:59.26 | tripzero | http://xkcd.com/243/ |
| 17:59.28 | anidel | uhsf, you want to use and move the mouse pointer? on the n900 ? why don't you swipe your finger from the left side of the screen ? |
| 17:59.52 | GeneralAntilles | uhsf, mouse pointer on a touchscreen is mostly pointless. |
| 17:59.55 | pupnik | it helps to have a pointer when using synergy from desktop |
| 18:00.08 | pupnik | the pointer also helps to see how i missed a tiny link |
| 18:00.24 | anidel | zoom in before tapping on the link |
| 18:00.50 | uhsf | GeneralAntilles: i'm using a synergy setup where the n900 is like an extension of my workstation monitor. a cursor is a must. |
| 18:00.53 | pupnik | that does not contradict my observation anidel |
| 18:01.19 | pupnik | uhsf: do you think regular synergy client is ok for repo, or should it be quicksynergy? |
| 18:01.39 | anidel | pupnik, it does not, but a cursor, I think, will surely confuse more.. may be not you though .. I am more thinking about a general user |

| 21:21.47 | w00t | Arif_: press the screen, and up it comes |
| 21:21.48 | pupnik | jophish: those would look great as giant transparencies on a lightbox |
| 21:21.55 | w00t | (on an input, of course) |
| 21:22.11 | Dantonic | hey pupnik just wondering what codecs you use. |

| 21:23.04 | Arif_ | that's why I'm asking here |
| 21:23.04 | w00t | Arif_: tap once to get it into a text edit, then tap that text edit - if that doesn't work, make sure you didn't disable it in settings |

| 21:24.04 | mece | ..or so I hear. |
| 21:24.25 | Dantonic | pupnik, I would love a way to make the default media player use mplayer instead of gstreamer do you know if that's possible? |
| 21:24.58 | lcuk | Dantonic, original spec for MAFW specified allowing multiple backends |
| 21:25.06 | tripzero | Dantonic, if the default media player uses phonon, you could probably install the phonon mplayer backend... |
| 21:25.09 | lcuk | i have no idea whether that remained |

| 21:27.06 | Dantonic | lcuk, so how can I install that? |
| 21:27.09 | lcuk | i play movies in it in bursts all day |
| 21:27.14 | Arif_ | whenever I try to search in the "all songs" it crashes |
| 21:27.18 | Arif_ | =} |
| 21:27.29 | lcuk | Dantonic, its only a part of qt, its not a standalone thing afaik, and it wouldnt help your problem |
| 21:27.38 | Dantonic | ah ok... |
| 21:27.59 | Arif_ | but if I start typing in albums or artist it's just fine |
| 21:27.59 | Dantonic | so there's no config file that tells the media player what backend to use? |
| 21:28.13 | mece | wonders if one could get a world record in N900 fly if one took it to the ISS... |
| 21:28.17 | Aijse | So I was wondering whether I should go for the N900 Maemo phone or not, enjoying ubuntu on my pc for a few years now. Was wondering if the community is fastly developping an nice apps are made? |
| 21:28.28 | Arif_ | maybe it doesn't like the 2000 Turkish charactered songs I threw at it |
| 21:28.29 | Arif_ | :D |
| 21:28.29 | lcuk | likes meces thinking |
| 21:28.41 | lcuk | Arif_, possibly |
| 21:29.01 | Arif_ | Aijse, there are 156 apps from november till now |
| 21:29.05 | Aranel | Arif_: you said "no turkish input for me" why not? does not ukeyboard work for you? |
| 21:29.07 | Arif_ | so yes I think the community is great ;P |
| 21:29.07 | mece | lcuk, I guess one could test the theory with that Spaceship one thing, before booking a flight to ISS |
| 21:29.24 | lcuk | mece, vomit comit would get you the world record first |
| 21:29.28 | Arif_ | Aranel, I can't get the virtual keyboard to pop up :P |
| 21:29.50 | mece | lcuk, a rollercoaster of sorts? |
| 21:29.52 | Arif_ | I enabled it in the settings and set it to TR/EN |
| 21:29.53 | jophish | n900fly works well on a trampoline |
| 21:30.02 | lcuk | you could also start a bit smaller and pad phone in a huge great ball of something and drop it off a building |
| 21:30.03 | Aijse | Just for the fun of it could you name some of the most awesome apps that will convince any 1? |

| 21:45.45 | GeneralAntilles | God I hate Nokia. |
| 21:45.54 | jophish | In regards to using the camera to pattern match stars, is the camera good enough to detect stars? the moon certainly. But in a hazy city, or in overcast England it might no work too well. |
| 21:46.13 | jacekowski | Jaffa: all operating systems just cut names |
| 21:46.38 | mece | jophish, well in a city, you don't really see the stars either way, so your point is moot |
| 21:46.46 | Jaffa | jacekowski: Pardon? |
| 21:46.47 | GeneralAntilles | Wrapping is such an obvious solution. |

| 22:57.08 | dotblank | its just divx.. nothing special.. |
| 22:57.14 | mece | zChris, well yeah, but they seem to have given up on the N900 in the navigation area. There's some other company that's offering a navigation solution for much â¬â¬ though. |
| 22:57.17 | konfoo | what resolution/codecs? |

| 22:59.58 | SpeedEvil | Is there a nice way to change this - and to tell the app using it that it's changed? |
| 23:00.28 | frals | lcuk: karmawhoring done; http://blog.frals.se/2010/02/10/ui-improvements-in-fmms/ ;) |
| 23:00.32 | ml-maemo | few codecs -cause- disk IO |
| 23:00.46 | konfoo | you want a codec that can be decoded using the dsp and the built-in or a gstreamer mediaplayer. mplayer just does software decode on the n900 afaik. so mpeg4 es for transport, h264/h263 for video |
| 23:01.18 | konfoo | probably base profile no cabac etc as well |
| 23:01.27 | mece | zChris, htc hd 2 seems to have the best hardware (for mainstream media consuming people) of all the phones out there. |
| 23:01.35 | ml-maemo | the built-in media player won't read any mp4 file I throw at it, sadly |
| 23:01.36 | konfoo | theres a transocding tool on the talk forums iirc, or you could use something like handbrake |
| 23:01.38 | zaheerm | only baseline profile of h264 |
| 23:01.41 | woglinde | built in player uses gstreamer as well |
| 23:02.12 | lcuk | frals, :) |

| 23:20.58 | SpeedEvil | In principle, it's 'just' another USB gadget driver. |
| 23:21.07 | SpeedEvil | I don't however know if it's been implemented. |
| 23:21.09 | mece | ooh. I see. |
| 23:21.21 | SpeedEvil | Or if it is - if the module is included in the kernel - prolly not. |
| 23:21.24 | dotblank | it would be like any virtual cdrom program.. allows you to mount and umount while it is plugged in |
| 23:21.26 | SpeedEvil | Though that could be fixed |

| 23:27.42 | dotblank | What would be really cool is if you can burn CDs and it will save a .iso on your phone |
